A must have for wildlife /art buffs5
Full of interesting background info on what made Robert the master of wildlife art that he is, wonderful images of his paintings and comments on them by the artist.

Wildlife art at its best5
This was purchased to replace my copy which I loaned out too many times and did not return. I consider Bateman to be the finest artist of wildlife now living. This illustrates his orientation as an excellent landscape illustrator and transition to painting the animal or bird as a subject, instead of an afterthought.

ROBERT BATEMAN: AN ARTIST IN NATURE5
An excellent book! I was amazed by Berman's amazing paintings and sketches of wildlife and, being an artist myself, found Berman's commentaries most enlightening. If you are an art buff or an artist, of wildlife or not, you must have this book! -- Rachel K. Clar
